Hello. I cannot get automations to work AT ALL! Every one that I try gives me the same error in my log, and I know I’m doing the automation codes themselves correctly. Even the automations that Home Assistant provides won’t work and give this error. It gives me a response 500 error.
TypeError: 'NodeStrClass' object does not support item assignment
If someone could help I’d greatly appreciate it!
Can you share the full log and your automations.yaml file. Direct message me if you think either contains sensitive information.
Can you explain the steps you are taking to “try” an automation?
Here’s the automations.yaml file:
automation:
- id: this_is_the_automation_id
alias: "The optional automation alias"
trigger:
- platform: event
event_type: ifttt_webhook_received
event_data:
action: call_service # the same action 'name' you used in the Body section of the IFTTT recipe
condition: []
action:
- service: "{{ trigger.event.data.service }}" # replace with the service you want to call
data:
entity_id: "{{ trigger.event.data.entity_id }}"
Here’s the error log:

Thanks!
I’m going into home assistant, going to automations, pressing new automation, and using the drop downs to select what the triggers and actions should be. Then I get this response 500 error.
Nevermind, I figured it out. Thanks everyone!
Any hints for future users with the same problem?
I just cleared the automations.yaml file of all text and went into home assistant and pressed new automation and it worked.
Out of disk space was my experience of the 500 error
Out of disk space was the solution for me too!
